Then the young men smeared their

ENGLISH NEEDLEWOMEN.

The Pitiable Condition of Female = oilers
in England and Ireland.
Low class plain sewing is wretchedly
paid. There existed short while since
West End shop which paid Is. a dozen
to London seamstresses for machine
made Oxford shirts, and I'D. each,
buttonholes included, is still a common
wage. But one shop must not be
judged by another, and the better class
of traders pay their workers as highly
as the selling price will allow them to.
Yet even in these cases the earnings
of the plain needlewoman are small.
Six shillings is high price to pay for
the making of a ladys nightdress.
vet there is from three to five days
work in such garment when finely
tucked and made by hand, so that IS. II
day is the highest earnings of skilled
"white" worker employed by high
class firm. Her neighbor. no less pro-
ticient, but working for a cheaper
house, gets only IS. Cd. or IS. Cd. for
the same garment, yet the wonder is
rather that her employer pays her so
well than that he pays so badly, for he
has to compete with his fellow-trades-
man, the seller of convent and peni-
Tertiary work. and with him who deals
in the cheap and excellent labor mar
kets of Ireland and France. The greater
part of the cheap ready-made under
clothing now sold in London is
of Irish make, and every one must be
familiar with the typical Irish night
dress, varying in price from Is. to los,
and with the front entirely composed
of exquisite fine tucks, so small and
closely set that there are from 40 to 45
on each side, making between 80 and
90 across the breast; the collar and
wristbands are formed of the small fine
tucks, and the hens are embellished
with fine fancy stitching called heath
erine. and the garment is trimmed with
Swiss or Madeira work, gathered and
then stitched on. Such night-dresses,
better stitched than the average IS. 3D.
to 6s. London articles, are made In the
country districts round Londonderry
for IS. 3D., or 26s- the dozen And Tor
this price the worker has often to walk
five miles from her home to receive her
work and to return it when finished,
carving her bundle of finished work
with her and returning with her I'M
made pieces. This ten-mile journey is
a sore addition to the burden of half
starved and weakly life And the Irish
workwoman, too, has often others de-
pending upon her. Among the small
cotters the earnings of the women are
often in these bad times all that the
family has to depend on. and some OF
the most beautiful underlinen has been
made literally in a pigstye by the wom-
enkind of evicted cotters.-F Adoet
Robinson, ia Fortnightly Rer1eO-
